Default Guess Who's On The Boat - Finally!! 🇬🇧

Just checked my VIN on the W&W site for the gazillionth time and I now have info.
I had it calculated correctly. I posted in my other thread I thought my coupe would be on the Elektra arriving today in Southampton.
ETA to Brunswick 11/24 so my dealer should have it by 11/28.
I feel like I might actually see this car after all. 😀

PD after all the tortuous and torturous drama of your order I hope your dealer throws in some nice freebies with the delivery. They owe you that at minimum!

I agree! A discount off MSRP would be nice also.
The GM is having the window tint applied for me.

The crazy part of this order process was on the JLR end. They accepted the order on July 9 and then changed the ETA 6 times after that.

Lunar Gray with Red was my second choice so I am curious to see what it looks like on your car. If I had that color I think I would use XPEL stealth on the whole car to create a look that mimics my Frozen Grey BMW.

I admire your patience through the ups and downs of your order. Your build choice should look great when you finally get it!

I don't think my build would be considered unusual. I ordered the S with every option except CCB. Maybe they just made mine extra special. LOL

Thanks jm! My GM has been great about keeping me updated, but I will admit the past week my patience has shown signs of weakening. 😇

I hope you have it by Christmas. It will be a pain for you if your lease is up before the car arrives.

Yes! Of all of us who placed orders in June/July I think I'm the only one still waiting.
